Overwatch 2 to CS2
Sensitivity Converter
Going from Overwatch 2 to CS2? Multiply your sens by 0.3. That keeps your cm/360 (the mouse distance for a full turn) identical, so Overwatch 2 5 becomes CS2 1.5 at any DPI. Use the converter for your exact number, then warm up at it in the browser.
The Overwatch 2 to CS2 multiplier
Every shooter turns the camera a fixed angle per mouse count at sensitivity 1. That angle is the game's yaw: 0.0066 degrees in Overwatch 2, 0.022 in CS2. Your real sensitivity is cm/360 = 2.54 × 360 / (DPI × sens × yaw), so holding it constant across games leaves one ratio of yaws: 0.0066 / 0.022 = 0.3. DPI cancels out, so the multiplier is the same at 400, 800 or 1600 DPI.
Overwatch 2 turns far less per sensitivity point than any other game here, so its numbers look huge next to Valorant or CS2 values. Only cm/360 is comparable.
CS2 is the most common switch into and out of Valorant. Both are slow, precise tactical shooters, so muscle memory carries over cleanly once the cm/360 matches.
Overwatch 2 sens to CS2: conversion table
Common Overwatch 2 sensitivities and their CS2 equivalents. cm/360 is measured at 800 DPI and is the same in both games; at 400 DPI double it, at 1600 DPI halve it. These rows span 17.3 to 57.7 cm/360.
| Overwatch 2 sens | → CS2 sens | cm/360 @ 800 DPI | Overwatch 2 eDPI | CS2 eDPI |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 3 | 0.9 | 57.7 cm | 2400 | 720 |
| 4 | 1.2 | 43.3 cm | 3200 | 960 |
| 4.5 | 1.35 | 38.5 cm | 3600 | 1080 |
| 5 | 1.5 | 34.6 cm | 4000 | 1200 |
| 6 | 1.8 | 28.9 cm | 4800 | 1440 |
| 7 | 2.1 | 24.7 cm | 5600 | 1680 |
| 8 | 2.4 | 21.6 cm | 6400 | 1920 |
| 10 | 3 | 17.3 cm | 8000 | 2400 |
eDPI (sens × DPI) only compares within one game: Overwatch 2 eDPI 4000 is the same aim as CS2 eDPI 1200. Compare cm/360 across games instead.
Field of view: why it may not feel identical
Overwatch 2
Overwatch 2 has a field-of-view slider under Options > Video, measured horizontally on 16:9, with a maximum of 103.
CS2
CS2 has no field-of-view slider: it is 90 degrees measured on a 4:3 frame, which is about 106.26 degrees horizontal on a 16:9 screen. Only the cheat-protected fov_cs_debug command changes it.
Where to set it in CS2
In CS2, the setting lives at Settings (the cog, top left) > Keyboard / Mouse > Mouse Sensitivity. Or open the console and type sensitivity 1.5.
Your current number is in Overwatch 2 at Options > Controls > General > Mouse > Sensitivity (Change Hero sets a per-hero value).
Overwatch 2 input
Overwatch 2 has an Enable High Precision Mouse Input option in its Gameplay settings. It lets shots register between frames; it does not change your turn rate.
CS2 input
Raw input is always on in CS2: the old m_rawinput command was removed, so Windows pointer settings never touch your in-game aim.
Then warm up at CS2 1.5 (800 DPI) in the browser: the trainer runs at CS2's own turn rate, so the number you type is the number you train. Change the values in the converter first and the button above carries your exact sens.
Overwatch 2 to CS2 FAQ
How do I convert Overwatch 2 sensitivity to CS2?
Multiply your Overwatch 2 sens by 0.3 (0.0066 divided by 0.022). For example Overwatch 2 5 becomes CS2 1.5, which is 34.6 cm/360 at 800 DPI in both games. Keep the same DPI and the full-turn distance stays identical.
What is the CS2 to Overwatch 2 multiplier?
Multiply your CS2 sens by 3.333 (0.022 divided by 0.0066) to get the Overwatch 2 value with the same cm/360. CS2 1.5 goes back to Overwatch 2 5.
Will CS2 feel exactly like Overwatch 2 after converting?
A full 360 turn will take exactly the same mouse distance. Overwatch 2 tops out at 103, about 3.3 degrees narrower than CS2's 106.26 on 16:9. At the same cm/360, Overwatch 2 at its maximum will look slightly faster on screen; 103 is the closest match you can get.
Does DPI change the Overwatch 2 to CS2 conversion?
No. With the same DPI in both games the multiplier is always 0.3. DPI only changes your cm/360 and eDPI. If you change DPI, scale the sens by old DPI divided by new DPI: going from 800 to 1600 DPI, CS2 1.5 becomes 0.75.
Where do I enter my sensitivity in CS2?
In CS2, the setting lives at Settings (the cog, top left) > Keyboard / Mouse > Mouse Sensitivity. You can also open the console and type sensitivity 1.5.
